1. A method for the preparation of a composite material by a three-dimensional ink-jet printing system, the method comprising:

  • designing a composite material multi-phase structure to include predetermined combinations of two or more different compositions, each having different properties;

    selectively dispensing according to said structure said two or more compositions in construction layers from two or more corresponding dispensers to form at least two different phases of composite material having predesigned isotropic and/or anisotropic properties, wherein at least one of the phases is a non-continuous phase; and

    exposing the dispensed construction layers to radiation energy for at least partial solidification of the layers to obtain the composite material.
